CHAPTER  V. Th. Captain Make, a Fri.nd.
FIVE minutes later he was at the street corner Inquiring of a po¬ liceman "the handiest way to pet to Pine street." Following tho diree- tlona given, he boarded a train at the nearest subway station, emerged at Wall street, Inquired once more, lo¬ cated the street he was looking for and, consulting a card which he took from a big stained leather pocketbook, walked on, [)cerlng at the numbers of tbe buildings he passed.
The offlces of Sylrester, Kuhn & Qravea were on the sixteenth floor of a new and gorgeously appointed sky¬ scraper. When Captain Ellsha entered the firm's reception room he was ac¬ costed by a wide awake and extremely self possessed offlce boy.
Informed by the none too courteous lad tbat uone of the Arm was in, he left bis card, saying he'd return later.
Captain Ellsha strolled down Pine street, looking about bim with interest. It had been years since be visited this locality, and tbe changes were many. j Boon, bowever, be began to recognize familiar landmarks. He was approach- I ing tbe water front, and tbere were fewer new buildings. When he reached Sonth street he was thoroughly at liome.
The docks were crowded. The river waa alive with small craft ot all kinds. Steamers and schooners were plenty, bat the captain missed tbe (4d square riggers, tbe clipper ships and barks, BOch as he had sailed in as cabin boy, as foremast band and later command¬ ed on many seas.
At length, bowever, he saw four masts towering above tbe roof of a freight house. Tbey were not schooner rlgge<l, those masts. Tbe yards were set square across, and along with tbem were furl¬ ed royals and upper topsails. Here ut last was a craft worth looking at. Cap¬ tain Ellsha crossed tbe street, burrie*! past tbe covered freight bouse and saw a magniflcent great ship lying t>e8lde a broad, open wharf. Down tbe wharf he walked, Joyfully, as one who greets an old friend.
The wharf was practically deserted. An ancient watchman was dozing in a sort of sentry box, but he did not wake. There was a pile of foreign looking crates and boxes at the farther end of tbe pier, evidently the last bit of cargo waiting to be carted away. Tbe cai>- tain inspected the pile, recognized tbe goods as Chinese and Japanese, then read tbe name on tbe big ship's stern. She was the Empress of tbe Ocean, and her home port was Liverpool.
The captain strolled about, looking har over. Tbe number of improvements since his seagobig days was astonish¬ ing. He was standing by tbe wheel, near tbe companlonway, wishing tbat he might inspect tbe officers' quarters, bnt not liking to do so without an in¬ vitation, when two men emerged from the cabtai. .
One of tbe pair was evidently the Japanese steward of tbe ship. The oth¬ er waa a tall, clean cut young fellow, whose general appearance and lack of ¦nnbum showed quite plainly that he was not a seafaring man by profession. He said he was a friend of one of the consignees and would be pleased to show the captain over tbe ship.
Captain Ellsha, delighted witb the opportunity, expressed bis thanks, and the tour of Inspection began. The steward remained on deck, bat the captain and bis new acquaintance strolled tlrongh the officers' quarters together.

'I'he throe men woro an ugly lot, and tliey were all y(>lliiignnid Jabbering togollior in n foreign lingo. As tbe oiiplain emorpotl from the passage to the open deck he heard Pearson reply in the same lungnago.
"Whnt's tho matter?" ho askefl.
Penr.son answered without turning his bead.
"Drunken sailors," he expinine<]. "Part of tho crow here. Tliey'vo been uptown, got full and como back to square a gnnlgo they seem to havo against the steward.    I'm telling them
Just how "you tVel.    Its in my blood, 1 ! "i^'J'''' '"'ftP'' Jfi™ up and go ashore, if
i guess. 1 como of a .salt water lino. My people wero from I!eira.st, Me., uml every man of tliom wont to sea."
"Belfast, hoy? Tliey turned out some A No. 1 sailors in Helfast. I sailed under a Cap'u I'earson from thore onco. .Tames rearsmi his name was."
"lie was m.v groat-uiiclo. I was named fur liiin. My mime Is .Tamos Pearson also."
"What?"- <'aptnln Kllslia was hugely delighted. "Mr. rearson, sliake hands. I want to toil you Hint your Uncle Jim was a seaman of tbe kind you dream about, but seldom meet. I was bis second mate three v'yages. My name's Ellsha Warren."
Mr, Pearson shook bands and laugh¬ ed good bumoredly.
"Glad to meet you. Captain War¬ ren," he said. "And I'm glad you knew Uncle Sam. As a youngster be was my idol. He could spin yams tbat were worth listening to."
"I bet you! He'd seen thhigs wuth vamin' about. So you ain't a sailor, hey?   Llvin' iu New York?"
Tbe young man nodded. "Yes," be said. Then, wl^ji a dry smile: "If you call occupybig n ball bedroom and eat¬ ing at a third rate boarding bouse ta¬ ble living. However, it's my own fault. I've been a newspaper man since I left college. But i threw up my Job six months ago. Since then I've been free lancing."
"Have, hey?" Tbe captain waa too polite to ask further questions, but be bad not tbe slightest idea wbat "free lancing" might be. Pearson divined ills perplexity and explained.
"I've bad a feeling," be said, "that I might write magazine articles and sto¬ ries—yes, possibly a novel or two. Ifs a serious disease, but tbe only way to flnd out whether It's chronic or not \a to experiment. That's wbat I'm doing now. Tbe thing I'm at work on may turn out to be a sea story. So I spend some time around the wharves and aboard tbe few sailing ships in port picking up material."
Captain Elisha patted him on the back.
"Now, don't you get discouraged," he said. "I used to bave an Idea that novel wrltln' and picture painthi' was poverty Jobs for men with healthy ap¬ petites, but I've changed my mind. 1 don't know's you'll believe it, but I've Just found out for a fact that some painters get $20,000 for one picture— for one, mind you! And a little mite of a thing, too, that couldn't huve cost scarcely unythhig to pauit. Maybe novels sell for Just us much. I dou't know."
His companion laughed heartily. "I'm afraid not, captain," he said— "few, at any rate. I should be satis fled with considerably less to begin with.   Are you living here tn town?"
"Well—well, I don't know. I ain't exactly livbi", and I ain't exactly board- in'. But, say, ain't tbat tbe doctor callhi' you?"
It was tbe steward, and there was an anxious ring in his voice. Pearson ex¬ cused himself and hurried out of the cabin. Captain Elisha lingered for a final look about. Theu be followed leisurely, becoming aware as he reached the open air of loud voices in angry dialogue.
Entrances to the Empress of the Ocean's cabins were on tbe muln deck. and also on the rulsetl half deck at tho stern, near the wheel, the binnacle aud officers' corned beef tubs swinging in their frames.    From  this upoer deck
thoy know wbcn they're well oIT."
The threo follows by the ladder's fofit were consulting together. On tbo wharf were half a dozen loungers, collected by tho prospect of a row.
"If I can bold them off for a few mlnutos," went on Pearson, "wo'll be all right. Tbe wliarf watchriian has gono for tho iiolleo. Here. droi> itl Wiiat aro you t\\\ to?"
Ono of tho sailors bad drawn a knife. Tbo other two reaclied for their liells boliind, evl'lently intending to follcjw suit. From the loafers ou tho whiirf eaitio shouts of eiicourngemont.
"Do tho diide up. Pedro! riivo him what's comin' to lilm."
Tho trio fornuvl for a rush. The steward, widi a shrill scream, flod to tho cabin. Pearson did not movo. He even smilofl Tbo next moment bo was imshoii to one side, and Captain Ellsbn .=itood at the top of the ster>s.
"Iloro!" he said sternly. "What's all this?"
The threo sailors, a.stonishod at this unexpected addition to their enemies' forces, hesitated. Pearson laid bis hand on the captain's arm.
"Be carf/ul." he said. "They're dan¬ gerous."
"Dangerous? Them? I've seen their Itlnd afore. Here, you!" turning to the three below. "Whut do you mean by this? Put down thnt Unifo, you lub- berl Do you want to lie |iut in Irons? Over the side with you, you swabs! Gttl"
He began descending tbe ladder. Whether the sailors wore merely too surprised to resist or because they rec¬ ognized the authority of the deep soa In Captain Ellsha's voice und face Is a question. At any rate, as ho descended tbey backed away.
"Mutiny on board a ship of mine?" roared tlie captain. "What do yon mean by it? Why, I'll have you tied up and put on bread and water. Over the side with you! Jlutlny on bonrd of mo! Lively!  Tumble up there!"
With every ordor came a stride for¬ ward and a correspondingly backward movement on the part of the throe. The performance would have been ridiculous  if  Pearson  bad not feared
mit uown rno w uarr.
"Well, by George!"' exclaimed Pear¬ son.
Captain Elislia .seemed to be coming out of n dro;im. Ilo stood still, drew his hand ncross his forehead nnd thon began to laugii.
'•^\¦oli!" he stammered. •'Well. 1 siium! I—I—Mr. I'oarson, 1 wonder wbnt on eartli you must think of me. I declare tlio sight of that gang sot mo buik aliont luonty yours. Thoy—tliey must hav(,' thought I was the now skipper! Iiid you hoar mc; toll 'cm tlioy couldn't mnt iny aljdard of mo? Uo. lio!  Woll. I'm an <.ld idiot!"
Pearson stuck bis list into the palm of his other liaiid.
"I've got it!' he crie<J. "I know your name was familiar. Why, you're the mate that liaiidlci tho mutinous crow aboard I'ncle .Ilin's bark, tho Pacer, olT Mauritius, in tho typluxjii, when he was hurt and in tlio cabin. I've heard him toll it n dozen times. Well, this Is a lucky day for mo!"
Caiitain i;!'si];i was ovidentl.v pleased. "So ho 'old yon tbat. did bo?" be began. "That was a time und a half, 1"—
Tho captain started, hastily pulled out his watcli and looke<l at it.
"Quarter  to  1 !"  he criwl.    "And  I said I'd bo b.nk at that lawyer's ofllco ¦ at half Iiast 12.

Tbe yonng man was evidently do- ligbteil.
"Wiil I?" ho exclaimed. "Indeed I I will. I warn you. Capt.aiii Warren. I that I shall probably koori you busy ' spinning sea yarns."
"Nothin' I like bettor, though I'm afraid my yarn.s'll be pretty dull along¬ side of yonr T'liclo Jim's."

CHAPTER VI. "I Think I May Take th. Job."
THE boy, Captain Ellsha's acquaint- anco of tiio morning, was out re¬ galing liinisolf with crullers and milk nt a pushcart on Broad street when tbo cafitain returned to the of¬ fices of Sylvester, Kuhn & Graves. The clork who had taken his place was very resjiectful.
"Captain Warren," he said, "Mr. Syl¬ vester is at the Central club. He wished nio to ask If you could conven¬ iently join him there."
Captain Elisha pondered. "Why, yes." he replioil slowly, "I s'pose I could. I don't know why I couldn't. Where Is this—cr-ilub of his?"
"Ou Fifth avenue, near Fifty-second street. I'll send one of our boys with yon if you lilvo."
"Oh, no. I I an jiilot myself, I guess. I ain't so 1.1(1 1 can't ask my way."
Tho cii|itain found the Central cltib. a ii'iiHloroiis institution occupying a bocominply Koi-},'eous building on the avonuo. Mr. Sylvester was expecting him. and thoy dined in the club restau¬ rant. \
"Now. Caiitaln Warren, Just how much <lo yu know about your late brothor's affairs'-" nsked Mr. Sylvester at th/ cuiulusion of the meal.
"Except wliat Mr. Graves told me. nothin' of importance. And, afore wo go any furrlicr, lot me ask a <iuestlon. Do you knnw wliy Rijo made me his oxP' iit'T anil «-nardian and all the rest of It?"
"I do not, (iravos drew his will, and 80, of course, wo knew of your exist¬ ence and yoiii npp"inrmont. Your brother forljade . ur menticniug it, but we did not know nniil aftor his deatli that his own children wore unaware they had un uncle. It .sooms strange, doesn't It?"
"It does to me; so strange that I can't see two lengths ahead. 1 cal'late Mr. Graves told vou how 1 felt about Itt"
"Tes. That is, he said you were very much surprised,"
"That's puttin' it mild onou^-'h.   And did ho toll you that Bije aud I hadn't ¦een ouch  orlicr. or even  written, in eighteen years';" "Yes."
"L'm-hni. \\oll, whon you consider that can you wonder I was set all aback? And tbo more I think of It the foggier it gets. Why, Mr. .s^ylvwtor. It's one of tliom s

"Not woll. no. Tho lute Mr. Warren was a closo mouthiHl man, rather se¬ cretive, in fact. Havo you Questioned the childron'.'"
"Carolino ami .stovo? Yes, I've ques- tlono<l 'oni more than thoy think I have, maybe.

"Ni>-o, No. I wouldn't want to say that. They're youn;,; and—and, woll, I ain't the kind they've boon usod to. Caroline's a ni.'o girl, Slio Is, sure. All sho uimmIs Is to grow a little older and have tho right kind of udvice and —and frionils."
